On Friday, Nigo will share I Know NIGO, the second album from the revered Japanese fashion designer who founded A Bathing Ape and is the current creative director of Kenzo. Tyler, The Creator features on two songs on the album (its tracklist was revealed on Tuesday), and today we get a video for Tyler's second track "Come On, Let's Go," the last song on the album.
On the brief cut, Tyler once again finds creative inspiration in his restless nature, chastising his girlfriend for making them late for their night out. It's a cute concept, though the intense, 808s and Heartbreak-esque beat suggests that there's something more at stake.
The video is another whimsical Wes Anderson-flavored cut set in front of a vine-covered mansion with a cameo from Tyler's hero Pharrell. Check it out above.
